OPPO Air Glass 3: World's lightest binocular AR glasses
Multimodal AI technology has the ability to understand different types of data, including text, images, video, and audio. This empowers it to process and interpret more complex user scenarios, unlocking new potential in user interactions like voice and visual. Although XR (extended reality) devices offer new opportunities for integrating these functionalities, in order to genuinely function as personal, commonplace smart assistants, they must incorporate both advanced functionality and lightweight designs.
OPPO has introduced the all-new OPPO Air Glass 3 prototype to explore the possibilities of AI technology based on cross-device collaboration between XR devices and smartphones, driven by this vision.
The OPPO Air Glass 3 is an ultra-lightweight device that weighs only 50 grams. It features a self-developed resin waveguide with a refractive index of 1.70, a display brightness uniformity of over 50%, and a peak eye brightness of over 1,000 nits. These features ensure that the OPPO Air Glass 3 provides a comfortable wearing experience similar to regular glasses while also delivering the best full-color display of its kind.
The Air Glass APP, accessible via a smartphone, provides access to OPPO AndesGPT. With a light press of the temple of the OPPO Air Glass 3, users can activate the AI voice assistant and begin performing a range of tasks.
The OPPO Air Glass 3 offers touch interaction that allows for convenient control of functions like music playback, voice calls, information display, and color image browsing, among others. The glasses also come equipped with reverse sound field technology, an open acoustic design including four microphones, and other innovative features that enhance noise isolation, providing high-quality audio and improved privacy protection.
New OPPO AI Center
OPPO has always been committed to investing in and developing AI technology. To further enhance its growth strategy, the company has taken several steps to make AI the core of its plan. On February 20, 2024, the company established the OPPO AI Center. This new hub is designed to better focus the company's resources towards R&D in AI. The center aims to drive cutting-edge, user-centric exploration of technology and applications that aim to bring the benefits of AI to everyone.
In the second quarter of 2024, global markets will have OPPO Reno11 Series and Find N3 with generative AI features, including OPPO AI Eraser. OPPO will integrate generative AI technologies into more global products, including the next Reno series, to give more users a smart, powerful, and easy lifestyle empowered by AI.
As of December 31, 2023, Chinese brand OPPO has filed approximately 3,160 AI patents worldwide. OPPO has issued the AI Smartphone White Paper, which analyzes future AI trends and applications based on years of technological knowledge. According to the white paper, AI smartphones will replace regular smartphones and revolutionize the mobile phone business. The industry will update and expand as AI is widely adopted, establishing a new AI Smartphone ecosystem with computing resources, function modules, LLM, native AI services, and AI agents.
AI Ecosystem
A mature AI ecosystem demands industry-wide cooperation. OPPO's AI initiatives go beyond its own technologies to include a diversified array of collaborations with global partners to assist in the establishment of this ecosystem.
At MWC 2024, OPPO, AlpsenTek, and Qualcomm Technologies demonstrate their collaboration to pioneer Hybrid Vision Sensing technologies with the new AI Motion algorithm. OPPO led the development of AI Motion, which uses RBG picture data and event vision sensing (EVS) motion data to deblur and interpolate high-speed images. Smartphones can take real 960fps slow-motion videos in 4K quality using AI Motion to reduce image and photo blur. Using EVS data to align moving objects between frames improves dynamic range and resolution. This technical integration enhances image and video capture, enabling innovative content creation.
AndesGPT and other AI capabilities
At OPPO ODC 2023, the firm introduced AndesGPT, its first self-trained generative AI model with dialogue improvement, personalization, and cloud-device collaboration. The new OPPO Find X7 Series has an AI Eraser function powered by AndesGPT. The Qualcomm Technologies booth at MWC showcased the AI Eraser and excellent imaging of the OPPO Find X7 Ultra. OPPO displayed the Find X7's AI Eraser at the MediaTek booth.
A collection of pioneering OPPO products, such as the Find N3 and OPPO Find X7 Ultra, are also on display at Google's Android Partner Walk, illustrating the extensive collaboration between the two companies in the development of more intelligent user experiences.
A partnership between OPPO and Microsoft to explore AI technology for the purpose of enhancing the user experience across multiple devices was announced at the event. Users of OPPO will soon have the ability to utilize Copilot on their devices to search for addresses, generate content, and translate text messages via a connected PC, courtesy of Microsoft Link to Windows and a newly developed plugin.
As the startup community helps create AI and other cutting-edge technologies, OPPO is introducing six startup teams at the OPPO Inspiration Zone at MWC 4YFN. The startups exhibit contactless health monitoring, an intelligent diagnosis system for heart and lung auscultation, an AR video game, and other AI applications.
According to OPPO, it will continue to invest in AI development and application, working with partners worldwide to introduce more industry-leading products and services that improve mobile experiences and create a more open and advanced global technology ecosystem under its mission of "Technology for Mankind, Kindness for the World."
